Lomustine With and Without Reirradiation for First Progression of Glioblastoma: a Randomized Phase III Study


Sponsor

European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer - EORTC

Enrollment

411 participants

Start Date

Mar 15, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Despite comprehensive multimodal treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma, almost all patients suffer from tumour relapse. Currently, no standard of care exists to treat these tumour relapses. Treatment options include repeated surgery (if feasible), systemic therapy (bevacizumab, lomustine, temozolomide re-challenge), reirradiation and best supportive care. Currently, the superiority of combined chemoradiation versus chemotherapy alone remains unproven. Given that lomustine is the standard chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma in Europe and the unclear efficacy of reirradiation, we want to explore whether combining lomustine and reirradiation may be a better treatment than lomustine alone. The results of the prospective randomized trial proposed here should demonstrate a significant improvement in overall survival when lomustine is combined with reirradiation in patients with recurrent glioblastoma compared to lomustine alone without adversely affecting quality of survival. The trial will be stopped based on overall survival in a preplanned futility and efficacy interim analysis.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is for people whose glioblastoma (an aggressive brain tumor) has come back after initial treatment. It is testing whether adding re-irradiation (targeted radiation therapy) to a chemotherapy drug called lomustine works better than lomustine alone. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older with glioblastoma that has returned for the first time after standard treatment (surgery + radiation + temozolomide chemotherapy) - Your previous radiation ended at least 6 months ago - The tumor is measurable and no larger than 5 cm - You are in reasonably good health (WHO performance status 0–2) - You have not yet received any treatment for the recurrence (other than possibly surgery) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have received any prior cancer treatment for the recurrence (other than surgery) - You have had prior nitrosourea chemotherapy (like lomustine itself) - You have a known allergy to lomustine - You have significant blood count or kidney problems - You have active leukemia or a myeloid blood disease Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
